I’m the go-to comms partner for IT leaders who want to transform engagement & impact.

Struggling to get board, team, or business buy-in? I provide bespoke and on-call strategic communications to CIOs and IT leaders that help you drive engagement, secure support, and elevate IT’s role in the business.

Hey, CIOs and IT leaders:

When it comes to comms, does it feel too hard to get it consistently right?

  • Are your board and stakeholders asking for more from you but you don’t know what that looks like?

  • Is the business frustrated with communication from IT?

  • Does your team struggle to understand IT’s strategy and roadmap?

  • Do you find yourself working late at night on cluttered board packs that have little to no impact?

  • Keen to launch a business newsletter, but no idea where to start?

  • Know you need an IT comms strategy but internal comms are too busy on other priorities?

Let’s talk.

I help you use game-changing comms to drive and deliver your agenda, bringing stakeholders, businesses, and teams on the journey, and transform your career and profile. We do this with a clear strategy and some simple, high-impact initiatives.

I’m all about simplicity, clarity, authenticity, and making it easier for you to do an awesome job. I’m famous for my ‘plan on a page’ and bold ideas that cut through.

Does any of this sound familiar?

Your board & stakeholders:

  • Your stakeholders still view IT as a cost centre, rather than a strategic enabler or business partner.

  • Your board packs are definitely too long and cluttered—but you don’t have time to make them more impactful.

The business:

  • The business don’t read our emails, and are angry that they don’t know what’s going on.

  • You know your comms is inconsistent but you’re too stretched to think about our messaging until the last minute.

  • You know you need a more regular update to the business—maybe a newsletter—but it keeps getting pushed down the priority list.

Your team:

  • Your team doesn’t understand your IT or business strategy—or their role in it.

  • Most of your wider team work in siloes and don’t know what everyone else is working on.

  • Everyone communicates to the business in a different style which confuses your customers.

  • There’s been too much change—your staff are stressed, disconnected and unproductive.

Hi, I’m Kate.

I’ve spent my career in internal comms working across multiple industries and geographies alongside senior execs and global leaders — with the last 12 working with CIOs, CTOs, IT program leaders, and IT governance boards across both IT comms and change management.

I’ve helped CIOs transform IT’s relationship with the business with simple and refreshing ideas, high-impact board and governance packs, and team engagement that moves the dial.

I’m all about simplicity, clarity, authenticity, and making it easier for you to do an awesome job.
